ABSTRACT:
A support system for use in partition walling and in supporting shelving and other elements. The system comprises an elongated post having a core, a face structure comprising a pair of spaced webs, each extending longitudinally of the post and delineating a longitudinally extending slot and sections joining the webs to the core and defining a space between the webs and the core. An elongated strip is a push fit within part of the space between the webs and the core, the strip having a part through which a series of longitudinally spaced locating holes are formed. The strip is shaped so that when fitted within said space said part lies behind said slot substantially parallel to the webs of the post and there is space left between said part and the core. This space may receive tabs on the ends of brackets shaped to interlock with the locating holes in the strip. Of particular advantage in the support system is a post wherein said space is defined by second webs extending into said space from said sections and delineating a second longitudinally extending slot aligned with the first slot. The second webs divide the space into a first area between the first and second webs and a second area between the second webs and the core, the depth of the first area being greater than that of the second area.
